The stock market has become unusually active, and private enterprise is awakening. Unfreezing credit of three billions in stored-u- p is expected to result from new banking regulations ordered by the President. Thousands of contracts for approved projects to cost almost $500,000,000 have been sent to all parts of the country by the Public Works administration. Mr. Roosevelt, in his latest radio In address to the nation, said: simple frankness and in simple honesty, I need all the help I can get, and it seems that the people are ready to give that help if the administration will do its part. ' Notable in the Presidents talk was the admission that mistakes have been made not only by his opponents and by industry and labor, but also by government leaders. He sharply attacked reactionaries in business, blaming them for much of the current depression. Asserting his continued belief in individual enterprise and the profit motive, he criticized the recent congress for failing to enact his program for government reorganization and legislation to aid the financially depressed railroad industry. At the same time, however, he said the legislators achieved more for the future good of the country than any congress between the end of the World war and the spring of 1933.
